What was once common sense is now the absurd under Trump. These dangerous weapons of war were taken off the streets to save lives. Here in Illinois, we took a stand against the gun lobby to keep communities safe with our assault weapons ban — and we’ll keep taking a stand.

It's official: the Junk Fee Ban Act is now law in Illinois. For too long, Illinois families have been losing approximately $3,000 a year to deceptive junk fees: sneaky charges tacked on right before checkout that you never agreed to. Today, that changes. (1/4)

Great idea Alex - I will file a bill to do the same in Illinois and see if we can add it to our FY27 budget this week. Jan 6’er slush funds should be 100% taxed - I can think of quite a few health and human services agencies strangled by Trump Admin cuts who’d benefit.

Hidden fees are driving up costs of everyday purchases for families. The price you see should be the price you pay. That’s why last week, Illinois House Democrats passed Representative @bobmorganil.bsky.social’s Junk Fee Ban Act, to protect consumers and level the playing field for businesses.
